If you want to date a single friend, it is best to keep it light. “Treat them like a friend, and start by getting to know each other; then go for drinks, and see what happens,” Metselaar says. Extend an invite, but dont invite others. Pick a datelike spot.

How do I convince my best friend to have a relationship?

Communicating Clearly. State your interest simply if you are still just friends. If your friend doesnt know that you have a romantic interest in them, tell them in a straightforward but non-threatening way. Explain that you are attracted to them and want to pursue a romantic relationship with them.
